The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 833

The moment he saw me, a look of pure, joyful surprise washed over Ferris's face.

I felt the exact same thrill. Having him waiting at the end of the aisle felt like coming home.

The wedding march began to play.

Arm in arm with Silas, I stepped onto the soft path of petals, walking toward Ferris step by step.

But I didn't even make it a few paces before Ferris started walking toward me, quickly closing the distance between us.

"Ferris, my man, since we're buddies and family now, I'm officially entrusting my niece to you. You'd better treat her right and not betray my trust," Silas said earnestly, taking my hand and placing it into Ferris's.

What buddy? It was ridiculous that Silas was still calling Ferris his buddy.

But Ferris answered just as seriously. "Don't worry, Silas. My love for Selena is absolute. I'll take good care of her. I promise I won't give you any reason to worry."

Ferris was just as ridiculous, calling Silas by his first name as if they were old frat brothers.

But they both sounded so solemn that I couldn't bring myself to correct them.

I let my hand rest in Ferris's palm.

To my surprise, Ferris immediately let go of it.

I froze, completely confused by what he was doing.

But a second later, I understood.

Ferris bent down and scooped me up into his arms, carrying me toward the stage with careful, steady steps.

Behind us, Amber, who was holding my train, gasped and then giggled. "Dr. Sterling is so sweet! He's so worried Selena's feet will hurt that he's carrying her!"

It was incredibly sweet, but I never expected Ferris to carry me bridal style in front of everyone. The audience was packed with Port Capital's elite, and with him holding me like this, I could feel hundreds of eyes glued to us.
